New study explores safer IV access for chronic pain patients

NCT ID NCT07555314

First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study looks at whether a type of IV line called a midline catheter can be used safely and effectively for repeated lidocaine infusions in an outpatient clinic. About 500 adults with chronic pain will receive ten lidocaine infusions through a midline catheter. Researchers will track how often the catheter works without needing a new IV, how long it lasts, and any problems that come up.

Active substance
midline catheter
What this could lead to
If successful, this could show that midline catheters are a practical option for repeated lidocaine infusions in outpatient settings, improving patient comfort and reducing hospital visits.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not a controlled trial, so it cannot prove cause and effect. Results may not apply to all patients, and there is a risk of catheter-related complications like infection or blockage.
